Chemical Education Journal (CEJ), an electronic journal on chemical education, is now changing its status to an international journal for those interested in chemical education, teaching and learning chemistry, in particular in the Asian-Pacific region, as well as in Japan. As a first effort, it published the Special Issue: Proceedings of the Special Symposium on Chemical Education in Asia, The 8th Asian Chemical Congress, Taipei, November 22-24, 1999. It covers twelve contributions to the Symposium.

CEJ welcomes contributions related to any field of chemical education and especially those aimed at its development, in particular, in the Asian-Pacific area. Please visit the above Journal Home Page for details and the Guideline for Authors.
